AIn carryingl out my invention I employ 'a pair of metal yplates ll and l2`which are loosely connected together by rivets 3 so as tod allow these plates to move v up andr down, 65 1n respect to each other and to move laterally in krespectto each other. These plates are preferably of thejshape shown so as to conforrnto the 'jaws of the mouth andare provvidedf-with `substantially semi-circular `por, ,70
